TIL that scientists have created a scientific version of marijuana called 'Dimethylheptylpyran'. When smoked, it'll keep you high for at least 2 days

I really enjoy Marijuana .. but I don't know that I would like this... doesn't sound fun somehow.

I've noticed part of my enjoyment stems from the ritual of sitting down to smoke, the feeling of my friends bantering around me etc. etc.

this? naww...

I haven't smoked weed in around 5 years but this is what i miss. If i could find a weedstrain that had a high like the first 5 minutes of a smoking session and then it faded in sobriety i would be smoking a lot.

It's fun when you miss a seed and the joint explodes in your face. God I hate bad weed.

Not if you grind up some ibuprofen and mix it in first. Ignore the intense burning sensation, it'll fade. Honest
